and friends of both believe now that their romance is aliovt to blos som into 1 new life the duke ims given many signs that he never has been able to forget the fall american girl despite the fact that their ngagenient once was wrecked by the iron clad customs and laws of the italian royal house of savoy and the determined oppo sition of dowager queen margherlta katharine elkins though her father sen ator stephen b elkins of west virginia said when the engagement was dpohuvr oil that the matter was a closed inci pient has never found a cavalier to take the place of the brilliant young italian plan quiet marriage a dispatch from rome friends of miss elkins and d'abruzzi think indicates that they now plan to brush aside nil opposi tion and marry quietly perhaps in the duke's native land more details of the courtship are con tained in a home dispatch to the daily news of london cabled here which says the romance of the duke of abruzzi and miss katherine elkins has not yet been concluded the duke who is sta tioned at venice regularly motors to tobiasch across the frontier where mrs and miss elkins are staying he travels incognito accompanied only by a chauffeur in a powerful racing motor he leaves venice late in the evening and goes to mestre where his motor car awaits him he crosses the frontier at cortina goes straight to tobiasch stops and returns to venice the same night so his trips are unnoticed but to-day he was recognized in the valle cadore and his des tination was discovered the elkins fam ily now is likely to leave toblaseh the possibility that d'abruzzi and miss elkins may wed after nil recalls a state ment by friends of the elkins family made when richard c kerens was named as ambassador to vienna that he was in cidentally commissioned not by washing ton but by his old friend steve elkins to smooth the way for miss katherine and the duke to wed dick kerens nml steve elkins were boys together in missouri and the kerens and elkins families have been very inti mate always kerens a multimillionaire is one of the most prominent catholic lay men in america the italian royalty objected to the ad vent of miss elkius not only on the ground that she was a commoner but also that she had not the position in european so ciety such as even a commoner may at tain entertains miss elkins here was where friend dick at vienna was to aid his office of ambassador to the court of the emperor francis joseph gave him an entree into the most exclu sive circles on the continent what more natural than that he and mrs kerens should entertain iu their ambassadorial residence the daughter of their old friend senator elkius and see to it tbat she obtained recognition in the same circles that they with their diplomatic prestige moved ? that was one way to obtain a social place for katherine elkins on the con tinent and miss elkins has as a matter of fact visited the kerens family at vienna these diversions and the brilliance of continental society did not dispel from her heart the image of the duke her friends believe and it was not in d'abruzzl's character to surrender easily whether the object of his effort was a pilgrimage of exploration under the arctic circle the ascent of a dangerous peak or the win ning of a fair girl's hand when his royal house was determined that he shouldn't now two years have gone by since the duke made a sort of shrine of miss kath erine's portrait and laid flowers before it daily even though the engagement be tween them had been dissolved but friends of his and friends of hers believe that

colored fighter says he is j sure jeffries knew nothing of the plot the real truth of the split between jack johnson conqueror of jeffries and george little bis erstwhile manager is out johnson says little told him there would be 100,000 for him if he johnson laid down to the undefeated white champion inside of eight rounds this johnson says was little's first proposition made about a week before their final break in the sec ond discussiou of the plan to hippodrome the light of the century a day later johnson says little suggested an added inducement in the following language don't you see jack the pictures will be worth 1,000,000 more if jeffries wins get wise well what did you say to him the first time johnson was asked last night at his home on the south side why i laughed at him i thought he was merely feeling me out turns down little's plan and what did you say the second time he approached you i said see here george little there isn't enough money in the world to make me throw this fight i think i can whip this man the best day he ever saw and be sides i have too many friends who believe in me and will bet their money to lay down i had long believed i was jeffries mas ter and it was my ambition to defeat him when i learned from little's own lips that he and his friends in Chicago were prepar ing to lay their all on jeffries providing they could get me to lay down i was an gry and i told little just what i thought of htm / from that day until the final break be was grouchy i feared that he would at tempt to dope me so after the episode in which he broke a mandolin over jlrs lit tles head i told the hotel management if the.v did not order himjaway 1 would leave as i secured them mote patronage than did little they asked him to leave jeffries not party to plot do yotj believe jeffries knew anything about the proposed fraiueui johnson was asked xo i am sure he did not because little went to jeffries at one time and wanted him to agree to an even split of the 101 000 purse and he refused he insisted upon the winner receiving 73 percent and the loser 23 per cent later as you know he agreed reluctantly however to a 60 and 40 per ceut division little's proposal then was the real cause for your dismissing him as your manager johnson was asked yes i had been suspicious of him for some time johnson was asked if little mentioned the name of the people he was supposed to lie working with for a fight fixed for jeffries to win answering the question he said : 1 don't know who was behind him little didn't tell me who had the 100 000 i know this much â€” the picture men have always been on the square with me and jlr rock told me he would just as soon see me win as to see jeffries win feared to expose little according to johnson little's attempt to fix the fight was made while they were in training quarters at ocean beach cal and before governor gillct announced his no fight ultimatum he explained he did not denounce little at the time in order that there might be no suspicion as to the honesty of the fighters himself and jef tisfv i knew if the facts came out then four weeks before the fight many would not attend fearing a fraineup 1 hesitate about telling the facts now and i hate to be held up as a knocker but this is the real truth jeffries i am sure wus just as confi dent of winning the fight as i was and i am sure he would be a party to a faked contest johnson further asserted little had con fided in him that both of them could make a fortune which would keep them during their natural lives if johnson would see that the fight ended inside eight rounds in jeffries favor i told him i would win what was your answer johnson wag asked i told him that i would rather wju this fight and make only 10,000 than lo lose it and make 230,000 i also told him i hnd t>ecn a long time lighting my way to the top and that i didn't propose to lay down now to a man whom i knew 1 could whip johnson's statements confirmed n rumor which became public in Chicago about the time of his separation from little the report emanated from close friends of jlrs little who it was said was advising her Chicago friends not to bet on johnson that george had tolu her in a letter that it was fixed little is on his way home from san fran cisco and eould not be reached last night choynski scouts story san francisco july 7 when in
